"Commissioner Füle’s remit covers an area spanning Morocco to Azerbaijan. We can see that he is basically paying most of his attention to the Western Balkans. I congratulate him on that and I thank him for it, as that is very important. The Western Balkans, from Croatia to Albania, Kosovo and the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, are situated in the middle of the European Union. We, the European Union, must at last succeed in our efforts to help stabilise them and increase the quality of life of this region’s population. The problems in Kosovo did not begin yesterday. They were unsolvable within the Federal Yugoslavia, within Serbia, and now this hot potato has been passed into the hands of the European Union. Belgrade and Priština should use the opinion of the International Court of Justice expected at the end of this month to initiate direct talks, without any preconditions. It is realistic to expect Kosovo and Serbia to be reunited once they both become members of the European Union. What is needed now is to encourage the constructive efforts of Belgrade and Priština to ensure that this process will take only a brief five to ten years and not drag on for another twenty or thirty years."@en1
